The sleeves arc immensely full to just below the elbow ; from thence to the wrist they fit the arm tightly : at the lower part they are sufficiently sloped to cover the back of the hand.

Hat of pink velours epingle, the front large, and a little turned up round the edge ; the crown is not very high. The trimming consists of a rich satin riband, twisted round the crown of the hit, and brought to the right side, where it finished by a bow.

A NEW YEAR !—How joyous are the feelings ! how relelightful the scenes connected with the return of this season ! Now the Christian can tell of past mercies still continued, former privileges again renewed, and fondly anticipated enjoyments rea lized. Once more the social circle is complete; time and distance have for a while divided those who are one in blood, and in one heart, but now they meet, surround the parental table, bow at the family altar, and again enter together the favoured sanctuary, ea deared by the recollection of light, peace, and joy, received therein. Christian Brethren, is it thus with you ? Then bless God for his distinguishing grace. But think of those who, like you, once shared in these social enjoyments, but have now become, through treachery, " the most forlorn of human beings." They had a home, they possessed holy privileges, they were once the ornament and delight of their respective circles. But where are they now ? Not of the family party, not at family worship, not in the family pew. No, their places are vacant ! The cheek of the brother, once lighted with joy, is now crimsoned with ;Immo ; the eye of the sister, once glistening with delight, is now filled with tears at the very mention of their name. And where are they now ? There ! on that cold stone, amidst that driving sleet, without food, without home and without hope ! And shall they continue there ? They would return to their friends, but the door is closed against them ; they woul.clreturn to society, but society despises them ; they have no choice but to sin or starve, or rush unbidden into the pre sence of their Maker ! Which shall they do ? We trust you are prepared to say " Neither !" and by your generous offering assist the LoNr)ox FEMALE MISSION in their efforts to provide asylums for the fallen, and to guard the unprotected but virtuous female f•com the dangers to which in the metropolis she is exposed. Subscriptions and donations in aid of the :Mission will be grate fully received by Gurney Hoare, Esq., Treasurer, 62, Lombard street; Mr. Hitchcock, Sub-Treasurer, 116, Regent-street ; Mr. Groser, at the office of the Society, 20, Red Lion-Square, Hol born ; and by Messrs.

Each party was above sixty.five years of age. They bad courted above forty years; he having to go and return a dis tance of seven miles to see his sweetheart, and the journey he never failed to perform once a week. Thus, in the space of forty years, he walked 29,120 miles on love expeditions. GLASS CLOTH.—A man of the name of Richard Baker, residing at Street-side, near Dewsbury, has lately in vented a sort of cloth, composed entirely of glass, of a very delicate texture, having much the appearance of silk, and feeling to the touch quite as soft. He has, within the last Week, been at London, for the purpose of presenting a portion of it to the Queen, for an apron ; and having obtained an introduction to the Secretary of State's Office, it has been forwarded to her nijesty, and on Thursday Baker received a letter from the Palace, acknowledging the receipt of the resent. An occurrence of a very calamitous nature took place on ba.rd the Ilindestau East Indiaman on her home ward voyage from Madras, from which port she sailed nn the 3d of September last. On the 24th of that month, Lieut. John Jerningham, of her Majesty's 45th Regiment, was sitting on a hencoop, bordering the poop of the vessel, conversing with two other officers, when, suddenly losing his balance, ho fell overboard, the sea running at the time s o hi g h, and the ship making su c h ra pid way, that every attempt to save him proved ineffectual. Lieutenant J. Jerningliam has been four years on active s2rviee in the East, and now, at the early ago of 24, has met with a fate that deprives her Majesty's service of a gallant and promising young officer, and his nearest rela tives of a brother whom they will never cease to mourn. S 3 brisk is the salt trade at Droitwich, that it is in tended to build four new and extensive works on a large scale, in order the more easily to meet the great demand. The pro cess or this manufacture is very simple, the brine being merely evaporated in large shallow pans, be means of fire, that nearest t 3 the heat being the finest salt, and the larger chrystals at the extremities being used for salting and in the arts. What is called broad or bay salt is made from the same brine and in the same pons.--- Worcester Journal. The conversation on a stage-coach, a few days ago, happening to turn on gloves, a respectable, tradesman ex claimed, "Ah ! I dare say I've had these doe-skins in use as long as most gloves wear." " How long might that be ?" said a fellow traveller. " Why, I had them when I was aba chelor, and I've been married thirty-nine sears I" Ile had worn them for six weeks or two months during 39 winters, and they were still in capital order.

Private James Gardiner last week shot himself in presence of two or three of his comrades who were in the barrack-room at Jersey. He was about forty years of age, and much addicted to drinking, latterly greatly increased, and low-spirited, from being re duced from colour and pay sergeant; added to which ho had a wife of bad temper. He had lately been confined for intem perance, and on the day of his release again got tipsy, for which he was taken before Major Slyfield, who forgave him, of whom he spoke with much gratitude. Next morning he was asked to mount guard for a comrade, and he said he would "if nothing happened." He took down his rifle, as was thought to clean it, walked to the end of the room, said " Good by, lads," put the muzzle under his chin, and literally blew off the top of his head. 70th—About thirty from the depot at Guernsey left last week for Portsmouth. 78th—Lieut.-Col.

They were discovered in a state of extreme intoxication in a public-house, and ordered to the Fort. On their way Moore and one of the party quarrelled. After some scuffling Moore fell to the ground with great violence, the other (Brown) fal ling above him. On Brown's getting up the other lay quite motionless, and uttering a snoring noise as if asleep. A cart eas procured, when the whole were brought to the garrison. Moore has since died of the injury sustained. An investiga tion has taken place before the fiscal, and the result of the particulars that were elicited, and with which we are unac quainted, is, that Brown has been committed to take his trial for culpable homicide. At the fire at Ballincollig last week, in the gun-shed, the sappers exhibited extraordinary tact by battering down a shed, to cut off the communication of the fire with the magazine, which was well stored with powder, and would have caused dreadful calamity but for the great ex ertions and coolness of the officers and men in removing the powder. Royal Engineers.—Captain Jebb is doing duty at Birming ham, in the room of Captain Furlong. Captain Budgen has been, appointed to the command of the Engineer department at the Bahamas in succession to Captain Walpole. Royal Marines—Colonel E. C.

NELSON'S PERSONAL APPEARANCE.--" the watch on deck," said Prince William Henry (hit late Ma jesty), " When Captain Nelson, of the Albemarle, came along side in his barge : he appeared to be the merest boy of a Captain I ever beheld, and his dress was worthy of notice. He had on a full laced uniform ; his lank unpowdered hair was tied in a stiff Hessian tail of extraordinary length ; the old.fashioned flaps of his waistcoat added to thegeneral quaint ness of his figure, and produced an appearance which parti cularly attracted my notice, for I had never seen anything like it before, nor could I imagine who he was or what he came about. My doubts were, however, removed when Lord Hood introduced me to him. There was something irresis tibly pleasing in his address and conversation, and an enthu. siasm when speaking on professional subjects, which showed that he was no common being."—Naval Keepsake for 1838. (.Just published.) The following instance of remarkable sagacity in a dog is authenticated to us by a highly respectable correspon dent :--On the Sunday following the burial of the late Mr. Dredge, of St.)ford, in this county (the death of whose widow was recorded in-our obituary a few weeks since), while the family were attending divine service at South Newton Church the deceased's dog, who had been his favourite com panion during life, came running in and about the building, and proceeded thence to the churchyard, where ho seated himself on his late master's grave, and set up a long-toned melancho'y howl, which so disturbed the congregation that the sexton was obliged, by forcible means, to drive the faithful animal from the spot.—Salisbury Herald. In consequence of the combination of coalfactors in London to prevent a free sale of coals, and the consequent long time that vessels sent from this coast have to wait for their turn of sale, the shipowners of the ports in Cumber land have laid up their vessels for the winter, in preference to incurring the ruinous expense of this most unjust practice.— Cumberland Packet. UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE. Oxroan, DEC. 30. —The trustees of the estates devised by W.

CIIILTERN HUNDREDS.—The Chiltern Hundreds were not always a fiction ; they were a veritable locality, in which the Knight of the Shire who was averse to entering Parliament, might take refuge, and might be secure from the pursuit of the Sheriff; but when once the Member had taken his seat in the House, this sanctuary was no longer open to him. Yesterday morning at 7 o'clock the body of a gen tleman (nami?, unknown) was found floating in the river nearly opposite East-lane. It was immediately tiken ashore, and on examination it was found that in addition to the skull having been fractured other injuries were perceptible. A gold dou ble-casee watch was found in his fob, but no money of any description, and from the appearance of the body, it is sup posed to have been several days in the water. The injures above described may have been produced by the body coming in contact with the various obstacles against which it was driven in passing up and down with the tide. The deceased had on when found a black coat, blue trousers, shoes, end cotton stockinge. There was a small piece draper in one of the pockets, on which were written a few French sentences, but wore so obliterated by the action of the water that the-words could not be deciphered. In the course of the week the town was extensively placarded with bills announcing flea a gentle man of property, an inhabitant of one of the streets leading out of Piccadilly, was missing, arid that greet apprehensions were entertained by his family fcr his safety, and offering a large reward fur any information cone( rning him. From the de 1 scription cf the unfortunate man found drowned under the cir- ' cumstances above described, it is conjectured that it is the person alluded to in the placard. Last week a notorious sheep-stealer, named Wheeler, was apprehended by Mr. Richard Costar, of the Crown Inn, Benson, who, thou g h no officer, his withi n a short time, previously al.prchendcd seven persons charged with distinct felonies, all of whom have beck transported. A mysterious story lately appeared in some of the London papers res;;ecting an Italian who is said to have en tered an inn at Devizes, and to have decamped very suddenly on the mention of the horrid murder which was perpetrated some months back in Frederick-street, R, gent's-park. The account added that the appearance of the man agreed with the description of the supposed murderer, but as the Devizes pa pers take no notice of the circumstance, we conclude that the whole story is an invention. We learn that the Belgian army is attacked by a violent opthalmia, and that upwards of 4,000 soldiers are suf fering from it, many having become totally blind in a few days. On Wednesday last the police made a search at the residences of M. Duchain, architect, and of M. Cornu, mer chant, both in the Gth arrondissement. The ostensible object of the search was to procure information relatiro to the affair of Hubert, but according to the Commerce, the real motive of the search made by the police was to seize all the papers that could be found respecting the election of M. Arago. All the documents relative to the elections of the 6th arrondissement, says that journal, were seized and carried off. Yesterday morning the tolls at Vauxhall-bridge were reduced one half on unladen waggons and carts drawn by two or more horses, and a proportionate reduction on all ligkt vehicles. - It is stated that Mr. Sergeant Atciterly, one of the candidates for the representation of York at the late election, has prcpsred a petition for presentation to the House of Com mons after the recess, complaining of the conduct of the Returning Officer and others at the election. —Leeds Intel ligencer. TFIE OFFERING DAYs.--The 12 days for the Royal offerings are Christmas-day, EAster- day, Whitsunday, and All Saints Day, which are called household days—then New Year's day and Twelfth-day, upon the latter of which a small quantity of gold, frankincense, end myrrh, in several purses, is offered by the Sovereign. The other days are Candlemas, Annuncia tion, Holy Thu rtday, Trinity Sunday, St. John Baptist, and Michaelmas-day, when only gold is uttered. An antiquary of considerable author ity says that the gold offered by the Sove reign at the altar on these occasions is called The Byzant, from a piece of gold supposed to babe been coined by the Emperors of Constantinople, which city was formerly called Bazantium. Those offered by King James 1., had on one side his Majesty kneeling before an altar, with four crowns before him, with this motto—" What shall I render unto the Lord for all his goodness to me ?" And on the other side a lion lying down b a lamb, with this motto—" An humble and contrite heart, 6 God, thou wilt not despise." At the Liverpool police-office on Friday, Nicholas Evans, a marine store dealer in Greatham-street, Park-lane, was remanded on suspicion of having wilfully set fire to his premises on the preceding evening, with intmt to defraud the County Fire-office, in which he had insured the whole of his stock in srade. CHEESE FROM POTATOES—Cheese, -it is said, of extremely fine quality, is made from potatoes, in Thurin gia, and part of Saxony, in the following manner :—After having collected a quantity of potatoes of good quality, giving the preference to the white kind, they are boiled in a cauldron and after becoming cool, they arc peeled and reduced to a pulp either by means of a grate or mortar. To five pounds of this pulp, which ought to be as equal as possible, is added a pound of sour milk, and the necessary quantity of salt. The whole is kneaded together, and the mixture covered up and allowed to lie for three or four days according to the season. At the end of this time it is kneaded anew, and the cheeses are placed in little baskets, when the superfluous moisture is allowed to escape. They arc then allowed to dry in the El - lade, and placed in layers in large pots or vessels, where they mu , t n main for 15 days. The older these cheeses arc the more their quality improves. Three kinds of them are made. The first, which is the most common, is trade accordi.ig to the pro portions above indicated ; the second with four parts of pota toes, and two parts of curdled milk ; the third, with two parts of potatoes, and four parts of cow or ewe milk. These cheeses have this advantage over every other kind, that they do not engender worms, and keep fresh for a great number of years, provided they are placed in a dry situation, and in well-closed vessels. Never, in the memory of luau, did an old year go out, or a new one come in, under such favourable auspices, os to weather, as the last and present ; both Sunday and Monday in all respects resembling April, or even Aby, much more than December or January. Mitch to the credit of the guardians, the inmates of the workhouses of the Wycombe union, were regaled on Christ mas-day with roast-beef, plum-pudding, vegetables, &e. ; and each man was a ll owe d a p i nt o f a l e, an d women and chldren half a pint. ,The Holderness Hounds Elect on Thursday at Barton Agnes; Saturday, at Arras—half-pas It?.

The Bogota papers to th e b e! inning of November, which arrived yesterday, contain nothing important, though the series embraces the whole month of October. A procla mati:m by the President of the Republic, dated the 3d, con vokes the Ordinary Cortes of Nutna Granada f,r the Ist of March next. The paper of the Ist contains a long correspon ' d-nce between the British Envoy, Mr. Turner, and Senor Lino de Pomba, the Granadian Minister for Foreign Affairs, respecting the delivery of the archives of the British Consu late at Panama, with the required solemnity, this being the only demand of the British Glyer.tmeitt which still remains unsatisfied. The correspondence terminates with an account of the delivery, with the formalities requit ed, to Mr. F. W. Byrne, now British Pro-Consul at Panama. Mr Turner having notified the death of his late Majesty in the usual form to the Government, a public audience took place on the 23d of October, when he presented to the President his new cre dentials as her MajeAy's Envoy to the Republic. A full ac count of the pi oceedings is given in the paper of the 29 b, en closed within a mourning border.

The amount . of new taxes imposed during the same period is only 870,000/., which dedur!cd from the former amount, leaves a clear balance of 6,380,000/. of which the country has been -relieved, being nearly one million sterling per annum. The gross amount of taxes in 1835 and 1836, de ducting new taxes imposed, was 1,366,000/. ; the net amount 1,175.000/. IL was the remark of an eminent membcr of the Pa pacy, " When any great misfortune happens to }nu, examine yourself well, and you will always perceive that it was, in some measure, owing to sour own faults."

Parks, which are now so common in this country, were unknown in England until the eleventh century. The oldest is the park at Woodstock, which was planned and directed to be made by Henry I. in the year 1123. BRITIsII MUSEUM.—A Correspondent informs us that the accomplished translator of Dante and Pinder, the Rev. Henry Cary, has resigned the humble situation he so long held as under librarian at the British Museum. " This is, says the Alhenconn, we presume, a consequence of the ap pointment of Mr. Panizzi, as librarian. Wi do not mention the eircturstance as at all reflecting on Mr. Panizzi ; but it is one that must increase, we imagine, to a very painful extent, the responsibility of those who set a,ide the bterary claims and long secviet s of Mr. Cary in his fay. A person of the name of John Raven met With his death in a very deplorable manner, in a woollen mill near Askrigg, Wensleydale. The tudortunatc man was in the act of fastening some screws, which were Lbout some part of the machinery, when a gudg‘•en -end got entangled with a frock which he ware, and drew hi with great violence, continuing to twist the frock till it bee me so twined about his ',eek as to produce strangulation befor aid could be obtained. Two little boyg, about ten or 12 }ears old, were with him at the time. They were rot, however, so acqua'nt-d with the ma chinery as to throw the cTlinder cut of g( er, but ran out to an adjoining house, but before the person arrived, the thread of life had been severed.
